Trace the usage of backend/utils/adt/pg_locale.c to see what's really at stake there. The practical issues would likely be things like type money using a currency symbol that's given in the wrong encoding. And of course you did get the point that we already know a bogus LC_MESSAGES setting leads directly to error-stack-overflow PANIC. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
